Car parts sourced in Japan

The part the dealer says is three months away, found in Japan.

Tell us your car and the part you need. We find it new or used, genuine or aftermarket, and ship it straight to you. You pay less than dealer prices and skip the dealer’s order queue.

Why not the dealer?

Same part, a shorter wait, a smaller bill.

Many cars on Caribbean roads were built for Japan. Their parts are still on shelves there, often at a fraction of the local dealer’s price.

Ordering through a local dealer

  • Dealer markup on top of their own import costs
  • Months of waiting while the order goes through head office
  • Older models are often “no longer available”

Parts Hunter

  • Bought in Japan, where these parts are made and sold
  • Genuine, aftermarket or good used, whichever you choose
  • Parts for new cars and for older models dealers have dropped
  • One clear price, paid by PayPal invoice

About me

Why I started Parts Hunter

I’m a car enthusiast who grew up in the Caribbean. Like a lot of people there, I drove a Japanese car, and I always wanted parts to modify it. The trouble was that the parts I wanted weren’t available locally.

So I started importing my own from Japan. Before long, friends and other drivers were asking me to bring in parts for their cars too. That’s how Parts Hunter began.

Going straight to Japan means skipping expensive dealers, and it opens up parts you can’t get at home at all. Every request gets my personal attention. I check that each part fits before I send you a price, and I’ll tell you straight if I can’t find something.

    2 Your vehicle

    Japanese imports usually have a chassis number like NZE141-1234567 instead of a 17-character VIN. Either works. You’ll find it on your registration or a plate in the engine bay.
